Hey,
Today i built my own beastly pc with a amd phenom II quad core 3.2ghz and a GIGABYTE GA-MA770-UD3 motherboard. However vista-64bit only recognizes under DxDiag that my clock speed is 1.6ghz. Is this measuring the speed per core or all four in total. I think it is the latter. Ive read places that some people had to upgrade their bios for phenom II on this motherboard but im not sure that is the problem here. Should i try multiplying the clock speed in the bios to get the processor up to 3.2 ghz? im just worried that it would do something wrong and mess up my cpu. Any suggestions? Thank you very much for your time and help.

Btw, if you need i can post my dxdiag for you to look at.

here are the parts:
